RECOVERY Recovery pulse stage

The RECOVERY function can be used after each exercise

program.

The RECOVERY button is used to initiate recovery pulse

measurement at the end of exercising. Initial and final pulse

during one minute are used to calculate deviation and a fit-

ness score. In case of equal exercising, improvement of such

score is a measurement for increase of fitness.

When reaching the target values, end exercising and press

the RECOVERY button; then, leave your hands at the hand

pulse sensors. In case of previous pulse measurement, the

display shows 00:60 for time, and the PULSE display shows

the current pulse value (flashing). The countdown starts at

00:60. Leave your hands at the hand pulse sensors until the

countdown reaches >0<. The display will show on its right a

value between F1 and F6. F1 is the best status; F6 is the

worst status. The function can be ended by pressing again

RECOVERY.

If no pulse is recorded during the time delay, the error message

“Err” appears.

End of Training and Standby Mode

The display switches to standby mode with temperature display

4 minutes after training if there are no longer any buttons being

pressed, no pulses arise owing to pedalling and no pulse is acti-

ve.

It is possible to continue the last training session if the display is

reactivated by pressing a button or pedalling.

Training and Operating Instructions

• Attach the ear clip properly to your earlobe and look

for the best point for the measurement (heart symbol

blinks without interruption).

• Do not train directly under strong incidence of light,

e.g. neon light, halogen light, spotlight, sun light.

• Completely eliminate any shocks or bounces of the ear

sensor and the cable. Always attach the cable with a

clip at your clothing or, even better, at your headband.

With breast lip

The internal pulse receiver is compatible to un-coded

POLAR chest strap transmitters. For coded systems, wrong

pulse values may be displayed. We recommend T34 by

POLAR. Please observe the corresponding instructions.

A plug-in receiver is not necessary and should not be used

for technical reasons.

Comment:

Only one way of pulse measurement is possible: either

with ear clip or with hand pulse or with breast belt. If no

ear clip is located in the pulse plug, hand pulse measure-

ment is activated. If you insert an ear clip in the pulse

plug, hand pulse measurement is automatically deactivat-

ed. It is not necessary to disconnect the plug of the hand

pulse measurement.

Faults in the Training Computer

If the computer display is not functioning correctly, please

remove the power supply and switch off the machine.

General information

System signals

Activation of the device

If you activate the device, a signal is emitted during the seg-

ment test.

Presetting

A short signal is emitted, if you reach a presetting like time,

distance and KJoule/kcal.

Exceeding of maximum pulse

If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat, two

short signals are emitted for the time of exceedance.

Calculation of fitness score

The computer calculates and assess the difference bet-

ween the training and recovery heart rate and the resul-

ting "fitness score" according to the following formula:

P1 = Training pulse P2 = Recovery pulse

Score 1 = very good Score 6 = poor

A comparison of the training and recovery heart rate is a

quick and easy way in which to determine physical fit-

ness. The fitness score is an orientation value to asses

your recovering ability after physical exercise. Before

pressing the recovery heart rate button and determining

your fitness score, you should train at your own level of

intensity for a significant period of time e.g. 10 minutes.

For regular cardiovascular training you will discover that

your "fitness score" improves.

Possibilities for Pulse Measurement

The pulse measurement starts as soon as the heart in the

display blinks in time with your pulse beat.

With hand pulse

An extra-low voltage caused by the contractions of your

heart is registered by the hand sensors and evaluated by

the electronics assembly of the device.

• Always grab the contact faces with both hands.

• Avoid jerky grasping.

• Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and

rubbing on the contact faces.

With ear lip

The pulse sensor works with infrared light and measures

the variations in translucence in your skin, which are pro-

duced by your pulse beat. Rub your ear ten times strongly

to activate the blood circulation before attaching the

pulse sensor to your earlobe.

Avoid disturbing pulses.

For Your Safety:

Before beginning your program of exercise, consult your

doctor to ensure that you are fit enough to use the equip-

ment. Base your program of exercise on the advice given

by your doctor. Incorrect or excessive exercise may dama-

ge your health.

Beginners should not start with training units of 30 to 60

minutes.

A beginner training could be organised as follows during the

first four weeks:

In order to have a personal training documentation, you can

enter the training values achieved in the performance table.

Prior to and after every training unit gymnastic exercises

lasting approx. 5 minutes serve the warming up and/or coo-

ling down. There should be a day without training between

two training units, if you later on prefer to train three times a

week for 20 - 30 minutes each. Otherwise nothing can be

said against a daily training.

Training Instructions

This device has particularly been designed and developed

for leisure time sportsmen. It is excellently suited for cardio-

vascular training.

The training methodically has to be organised on the princi-

ples of stamina training. This will predominantly cause

changes and adaptations of the cardiovascular system. This

includes the reduction of the resting pulse frequency and of

the load pulse.

This gives the heart more time for filling the ventricles and for

the blood circulation of the cardiac musculature (through the

coronary vessels . Moreover, depth of breathing and the

volume of air that can be breathed in (vital capacity) are

increased. Further positive changes take place in the metabo-

lic system. In order to achieve these positive changes, the

training has to be planned according to certain guidelines.

Planning and ontrol of your training

The basis for your training planning is your current physical

fitness condition. Your family doctor can diagnose your per-

sonal fitness by means of an exercise tolerance test, which

will constitute the basis for your training planning. If you

have not undergone an exercise tolerance test, high training

exertion and/or overstraining must be avoided in all cases.

The following rule should be considered in your planning:

stamina training is controlled via the scope of exertion as

well as via the level / intensity of exertion.

Regarding exertion intensity

The intensity of exertion should preferably be checked in

your fitness training via your heart’s pulse rate. The maximum

heart rate per minute of > 220 minus age must not be excee-

ded. The optimum training pulse is determined by age and

training target.

Training target: fat burning/weight redu tion

The optimum pulse frequency is calculated using the empi-

rical formula (220 – age) x 0.65.

Advice: fat burning for energy supply only gains signifi-

cance after a minimum training period of 30 minutes.

Training target ardio-vas ular fitness:

The optimum pulse frequency is calculated using the empiri-

cal formula (220 – age) x 0.75.

The intensity is predetermined in your training by means of

the braking levels, ranging from 1-16. As a beginner, you

should avoid too high braking level settings for your training,

as this will quickly lead to exceeding the recommended pulse

rate range. Start by using a low braking level setting and

then approach your optimum training pulse step by step. Do

not forget to regularly check during your fitness training whet-

her you still range within the intensity area according to the

above stated recommendations.

Sports physicians consider the following load factors to be

positive for fitness:
